Verse 1
E
I was raised up believing
A
I was somehow unique
E
Like a snowflake
distinct among snowflakes,
A
E
unique in each way you can see
E
And now after some thinking,
A
I'd say I'd rather be
E
A functioning cog in some great machinery
A
E
serving something beyond me
Chorus 1
E
A
But I don't, I don't know what that will be

A
E
A
I'll get back to you someday soon
E
E
E
E
you will see
Verse 2
E
What's my name, what's my station?
A
Oh, just tell me what I should do
E
I don't need to be kind to the armies of night
A
E
that would do such injustice to you
E
Or bow down and be grateful
A
and say, "Sure, take all that you see"
E
To the men who move only in dimly-lit halls
A
E
and determine my future for me
Chorus 2
E
A
And I don't, I don't know who to believe
E
A
E
A
I'll get back to you someday soon
E
E
E
E

Verse 3
E
If I know only one thing,
A
it's that everything that I see
E
Of the world outside is so inconceivable
A
E
often I barely can speak
E
Yeah I'm tongue-tied and dizzy
A
and I can't keep it to myself
E
What good is it to sing helplessness blues,
A
E
why should I wait for anyone else?
Chorus 3
E
And I know, I know
A
you will keep me on the shelf
E
A
E
A
I'll come back to you someday soon
